his side in a tight corner. He stood looking at
them, waiting for that sudden pregnant silence that comes just
before an orator says his first words. Then with the hot sun beating
down he began to speak.
"
You know where I went last night," he said, and every man
seemed to bend forward a little so that he should not miss one
word. "The Indian whom we brought aboard guided me to his
village which lies about five miles to the north of us. It is built
on the edge of a bay-a natural harbour, very much like the one
here, only larger.
"
As he and his friends had already told me, there is a Spanish ship
anchored there, put in for repairs to her steering. The ship is
the Santa Perpetua-a large galleon of over five hundred tons and
loaded with treasure from Panama. She was on her way to Havana;
and when she does not arrive, there is every chance that other
ships will be sent in search of her.
"
I am telling you now so that you will realize all that we have
to guard against. Our friend, whose father is Chief of the village,
thinks that she has approximately two hundred white men aboard,
perhaps more. They are most of them experienced fighting men and
well armed. They have posted sentries around the village and there
is always an armed guard aboard the ship itself, although the officers,
and the majority of the men too, have been making the most of their
enforced holiday, and enjoying themselves ashore. The Indian girls
are not unattractive ; the native wine is potent."
Rodney paused a minute, then looking straight at his audience,
he said :
"
To-night we are going to take the Santa Perpetua."
A wild cheer rose to every man's lips. It was hastily checked by
Master Barlow's "Quiet there", repeated and re-repeated
by the Petty Officers.
"
We must make no noise," Rodney warned. "Voices carry
in this atmosphere. Last night, lying above the native village,
I could hear conversations being carried on, orders being given,
the sick groaning with fever. We have still many hours of daylight
ahead of us and we must keep quiet and still for fear of discovery.
"
You will all of you have your orders, you will all of you,
